Strategic Priorities

Understand the interconnectedness of multiple perspectives and cultural identities
as part of a broader humanity, and express compassion for others, act in service to
others and enact social change with others.

Embrace the ideal that learning is a lifelong endeavor; discover, reflect on and apply
the knowledge acquired in classroom and out-of-class experiences to create deeper
meaning.
